The Gifts that Keeps on Giving ((You)) Nightmares


It's been a whole month without any new arrivals. Who knows why? If you ask CERES, they won't bother with any in-depth explanations. They will simply claim that none of the code out there has been responding to their recovery methods, so they had to rework a lot of their technology. However, after several weeks of grueling work, they have finally experienced success! A fresh new batch of faces is coming in, and to celebrate their arrival and the real upcoming holidays, CEO Julius Vincere has arranged for a Christmas-themed carnival for all to enjoy.

Those who arrive will wake up in Cerealia and be given a long, boring explanation and powerpoint as per usual before being ushered onto a bus (there is no escape. The robots will force you onto the bus one way or another). You will be unwillingly carted to the theme park where you will be immediately assaulted by a giant array of lights followed by several rides that you can enjoy. After you disembark from the bus, one of the snowman robots will be waiting to give you tickets to the rides and show you around as part of the Grand Opening. The amusement park will remain open for the rest of the month of December so anyone can visit as they please. The first couple tickets will also be on the house for new arrivals, but the rest will have to be bought with credits, so choose wisely! (Or try and sneak into the rides -- then face the wrath of the snowman robots and their snowman firearms :D)
"☃ WELCOME NEW ARRIVALS ❅
YOU HAVE ARRIVED AT THE SANTASTICAL FOREST OF CHRISTMAS WONDERS ❅
PLEASE ENJOY ALL THE RIDES CEO JULIUS VINCERE HAS HAND-PICKED FOR YOUR ENJOYMENT ❅
WE WISH TO BRING YOU MERRY FEELINGS FOR THE HOLIDAY ❅
COME GIVE SNOWTRON 5000 A HUG ❅
WHAT? YOU DON'T WANT ONE ❅
BUT I WAS PROGRAMMED TO CONVEY HUGGING AS LOVE THROUGH AFFECTION ❅
PLEASE DON'T RUN ❅
COME BAAAAACK, VISITOR ❅"

//SCENARIOS.EXE
PHASE I
[ xx:xx ] Do you like ferris wheels? This is an enchanting one where you get to ride around in a giant snowflake at a very limited speed. The wheel will turn excruciatingly slow before stopping abruptly, leaving you trapped at the very top. We hope you're not afraid of heights because you're going to be in there for a while! The windows on the snowflake will rapidly darken leaving you and your fellow riders trapped in the darkness. At that moment, you will feel something warm breathing down your neck and along the back of your ear. As you reach over, you'll feel like the chair underneath you is made of snakeskin, and a hissing sound will intensify as the "chair" squirms and as the breathing gets louder and hotter. Scrabble at the doors, fight your way out! Will you escape or not? Probably not, but the experience will last only a good five minutes before the lights come back on and before the ferris wheel starts moving again. The chair will appear as normal, and there will be no one else inside except any fellow riders who came with you.
PHASE II
[ xx:xx ] If the ferris wheel didn't "do it" for you, then perhaps a fun house will? If you're a fan, that is! This Christmas-themed funhouse features a wonderful walk through a snowy forest convered in singing reindeer. The more you walk through, the more you will notice things like within the distorted mirrors, there will briefly appear strange specters. You will also hear a bunch of howling in the background, and while you may think that you're safe since they're trapped behind a mirror, you are very wrong. The lights will go out once more, and you will hear the mirrors shatter all around and feel yourself being grabbed and hurled to the ground. Whatever is coming for you is something you can't see, but it's advancing fast with impressive strength to hurl you back once more. You will feel pain erupt through your body before an engineer will appear to get the lights back on. Once they're back on, the reindeer will be happily singing, and all the mirrors will appear as they were before -unbroken.
PHASE III
[ xx:xx ] After those interesting adventures, another option would be to simply visit the rocking santacoaster, a large, sprawling roller coaster that reaches 150 mph. You will be strapped into a sled and be shot through the tracks where you can scream and cry all you want except once you reach the tunnel, everything will come to a sudden stop (whiplash pending). You and the other riders will be in there for a few minutes, surrounded by a dozen santas as they start to fly out from the tunnel walls, carrying swords and swooping down to take a swipe at you. You better duck or be prepared to be cut up by their blades. The rollercoaster will abruptly resume, and when you reach the end, you might notice some bleeding, a little bit of hair missing, or some clothes shred up. If you ask the snowman robots about it, they will just shrug and claim they don't know what you're talking about. Please go enjoy a snowcone on the house!
PHASE IV
[ xx:xx ] The Christmas whirl will be your last stop for the evening! This is a ride that goes round and round and round while tilting. Everyone will be strapped into it while standing up and forced to hold on as it spins, and somewhere in the midst of the spinning, the ride will suddenly malfunction. Yes, big surprise there! But it won't stop spinning. It will just be a rockier ride, and you will seemingly enter a new space where you will be among the stars and seeing planets all around you. Your own home planet will be amongst them before it breaks open like an egg and out crawls a friendly visitor. If you get bit by it, you will spend the rest of the day and night experiencing an array of possible symptoms, including: a voracious appetite, a fear of light, the urge to 'mate' with anyone who smells especially good, heightened senses, the ability to climb on all kinds of surfaces, irritability and crankiness... (( you don't have to experience them all. you can pick and choose which one you like. ))
BONUS
[ why:o'clock ] What's that jingling you hear in the background? Why, it's Santa Clause! Coming here all the way from the North Pole. The park will stop, and all the snowman robots will gather in the square, ushering along as many people as possible. Santa-Bot X-3 will be seated on his chair to welcome all visitors to sit on his metaphorical lap and tell him what they want for Christmas. He will then give them a nicely wrapped present and tell them that it's exactly what they asked for, but they can't open it until they get home. For those who can't wait and choose to open it quickly, they will get some nice treats from Mundus Caelestis. But beware! Those who do take this gift home will experience a weird after-effect as the lovely red and white toy will come to life on its own and hop out of the box that evening to try and violently electrocute the owner. The other one is completely harmless.

[kaito sure isn't spiritually or supernaturally sensitive enough to pick up on anything other than visible clues, that was certain]

Because humans die. They get sick, they get hurt. . . they suffer loss as much as any other species does.

But those sort of things aren't really limited to humans, either.

[For a moment, Anna just stared at him before evolving into a light chuckle from her]

You got a point there! It's not like I can really hide who I am for a long time anyway, people are going to find out sooner or later! I mean, I don't really know what this place is like but I have a feeling I'm going to have to step up as a princess at some point. [Pause]

Even if I might not do as great of a job but that doesn't mean I shouldn't try right? [Even now, it surprised Anna how much authority she was given right now just by her title alone. Oh how she wished her sister was here...]

Well, I think people will find out eventually so I'll make that choice up to you. What do you think?

[Now what, Chal?]

[personal profile] zombiedude 2015-04-18 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
[He might seem calm on the outside but inwardly, not so much. Scared? Not really. Concerned? Definitely.

When the girl fell over, he wasn't sure if it was because she tripped somehow or if something caused her to fall. He reached out blindly to try and find her arm to help her back to her feet, asking quickly and tersely:
] Are you okay? What is it?

[That sound continued to get louder and made the hair stand up more on the back of his neck. It was like something was in here with them and he couldn't see it, like it was curling around them readying itself to go in for the kill.]
kaba: (✿ But I'll shave it for later)

[ That's what sane people do—they assume the guy is a professional at this if he's stupid and/or insane enough to climb a Ferris Wheel in such a manner. For all anyone knows he's part of the overall carnival act, or at least that he won't be stupid enough to do something this risky without taking some precautions.

But Koujaku is not sane, and as a matter of fact he's totally getting those wrinkles one day. It'll be like a badge of honor. ]


What? Like hell I am! [ He's not very self-aware, either. ]

I just ain't interested in seeing a kid get hurt while I'm around.
carptricks: (But photos on the walls)

[personal profile] carptricks 2015-04-18 04:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[an honor badge of wrinkles, kaito hopes he wears them with pride]

I won't get hurt, trust me!

[he's so confident]

And if I do, you can visit me in the hospital and tell me "I told you so."
nostatus: (save that for the black and white)

[personal profile] nostatus 2015-04-18 10:03 pm (UTC)(link)
They use robots--

[ He's about to start an explanation on it, because even with as stupid as Shinpachi might seem at times, he actually does pay attention where it counts-- aka to stuff like this, for example.

But then he realises something, judging by the other's looks.. it's not like he would have known if it wasn't for Zelien, so he scratches his head and tries again. ]


.. you know what those are? [ Since otherwise his explanation here is sort of wasted. ]
puerilely: alternatively nagumo clan level sanity (a face you can trust)

[personal profile] puerilely 2015-04-18 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Usually he loves it more when it scares the shit out of people, since.. well, Shuu is a five year old, he loves scaring the shit out of people.

But the fact that Judith remains so calm under it isn't so bad given that she at least gained favor points for letting him join in, which means that he's more willing to interpret things positively for the moment. ]


It's not little at all, you know..! Most humans would be cowering by this point! [ It's why he still sounds like he's grinning. ]
sjokolade: (Meet my little friend!)

[personal profile] sjokolade 2015-04-18 11:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[She wasn't sure what was happening but she wanted to get out of here right now. As she attempted to get back up (and try to find Nico's hand), whatever was tugging her immediately disappeared.] I-I don't know but...whatever it was, it's gone.

[Pause] Or m-maybe it's still looking for us...

[She was scared but despite her attempts to look strong, her voice was saying something else. Again, as she tried to speak up, that's when she felt something behind her. Breathing down her neck before she gave a loud scream]

T-There, that thing! It's behind us!

[personal profile] zombiedude 2015-04-18 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[Nico was all for getting out as soon as possible too. Once he found her hand, he helped her back to her feet. She didn't sound like she was hurt, which was good. He didn't have anything on him to use for first aid.

When Anna screamed that something was behind them, he immediately turned and move to position himself in between her and whatever it was, swinging down with his sword. It hit something, but he couldn't see what it was and he didn't think it was any creature because it didn't make any sound of pain. It felt more like a seat cushion. Sorry to disappoint you, whatever you are, but I am not dying in a ferris wheel, he thought, holding one arm in front of Anna while holding his sword at the ready with the other.
] Can you get to the door? See if it opens?

[ OOC. Whoops, sorry got sick for a couple of days there, but did just get something up!. And yeah I can't blame you for that one. I don't think I've ever seen an overflow log hit the comment limit too.

And nooo, man. I get that one. I also worry that I'm irritating people by tossing these weird, obscure characters at them, so I'm really excited you're enjoying it! And Cerealia is definitely a ton of fun, I've had a blast in the game so far, so I hope you really enjoy it too!

[ she arches a brow at his sudden intrigue. it's one thing to be curious, but he looks almost... too interested. ]

It's what we call it back home, yes. Does your home not possess physical sources of energy?
unionjackoff: (are drifting through my opened mind)

[personal profile] unionjackoff 2015-04-19 03:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[haha! whoops! anything magical makes England excited. he does see that arched brow and takes a step back, clearing his throat]

Sometimes. It's difficult to explain. Magic is not strong in our world, because so few people believe in it anymore. We don't have anything like that, though. [unless one counted Pixie Dust... that was a dust that was magic]
puerilely: less talking more explosions please (god this is sO BORING)

[personal profile] puerilely 2015-04-19 03:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Humans also kill anything that isn't human for just being different. [ Not that demons haven't done the same.. hell, not like Shuu personally hasn't done the same to humans in turn.

But.. look, they started it, okay. His brain is not capable of processing any sort of morality more complicated than that. ]


So then they have no right at all to complain about things not being easy.
kaba: (✿ It's a sham!  Poor Aoba.)

[personal profile] kaba 2015-04-19 03:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He wants to trust him, but wow what a morbid sense of humor…

Facepalm. Just. Facepalm. ]


Didn't your mother ever teach ya not to get into trouble? [ To be fair, his own sainted mother did, and he kind of sucked at staying out of trouble, himself. ]

[personal profile] brbwalking 2015-04-19 03:51 pm (UTC)(link)
You might have missed the part where I wasn't human.

[ Although Yuri would have handled it wryly, too.

Oh, but here come the lights. ]
carptricks: (Just go and listen)

[personal profile] carptricks 2015-04-19 04:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[well kaito sure won't be the one to deny that]

. . . yeah, well. No one's perfect. I never said there weren't bad people in the world who did bad, awful things.

[to deny such would be to deny human nature, he knows]

Just that there should be good people around to balance that out.
carptricks: (So if you believe in magic)

[personal profile] carptricks 2015-04-19 04:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[HA. HA. HA. that almost makes kaito, son of the world-famous thief known as phantom lady, laugh out loud. if anything, his mother encouraged trouble]

[he manages to keep it in, though]


Technically I'm not in trouble yet!
sjokolade: (DNW)

[personal profile] sjokolade 2015-04-19 11:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[Without another word, the princess tried her best to place her hands on the walls. While Nico might not like it, she does try to go as slow as she could. After all, any sudden movement could trigger a chain reaction.

However, as she continued along her path, she noticed that there weren't any sounds nearby. Still, she held her breath before she eventually found a knob.]


H-Here, I think I found something! [She wasn't sure if Nico might be able to see her hand but once she did grab something and pulled forward? Well, it sure didn't feel like his hand but she didn't want to say anything just yet...]

Hey...can you feel it? That I'm holding your hand right now?
kaba: (✿ I've got a hair-trigger temper)

[personal profile] kaba 2015-04-20 12:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Moral lesson of the day? Mothers are big trouble. He wouldn't have gotten this far without mommy's help, either. Or tragic death, rather. ]

Why I oughta… [ What was this about keeping it in again? ]
puerilely: at least put on a shirt kazutake??? (god what are you wearing)

[personal profile] puerilely 2015-04-20 10:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[ The part where you're not human is what makes you awesome, Judith.. Humans are so pathetic and they just cry and whine and cower a lot, so someone actually showing some spine is great. He's about to pipe up about just that, but then the lights come on, making him blink twice to try and get adjusted to the sudden bright lights again. ]

Huh, what-- [ And then the reindeer singing starts again. And Shuu looks like the most disappointed five year old around. ] Aww.. Over already? [ Sure sucks that event that would be traumatizing to most normal people is over!! ]
puerilely: what do you mean my family only plays a secondary role in hakuouki (actually vaguely concerned for once)

[personal profile] puerilely 2015-04-20 10:13 pm (UTC)(link)
.. You know, you're not the first one who said that.

[ Here, at least. Back home he's hardly interacted with humans for all those reasons, but in this place, after talking to some of them, there have been ones that have claimed the same thing.

And while Natalia has shown that some humans are actually pretty decent, it's still a thought that's hard to process for Shuu - hence why he still looks a little skeptical. ]


Are humans so desperate to prove that..?

[personal profile] brbwalking 2015-04-21 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sure if we stay here, it'll happen again.

[ As tranquil as ever, this one. It's like she didn't just get involved in a fight and that her leg isn't trickling blood from putting her boot through the mirror. ] But I think I'd like to get some air.
carptricks: (in underwater caves)

[personal profile] carptricks 2015-04-21 02:38 am (UTC)(link)
You oughta. . . what?

[leaning forward a bit, that shit-eating grin plastered alllll over his face.]

Are you gonna leave me hanging?
carptricks: (I would clearly feel blessed)

[personal profile] carptricks 2015-04-21 02:39 am (UTC)(link)
Of course I'm not. S'cause it's true.

[and he was fairly certain he wasn't the only one to acknowledge that fact]

I don't know if we're desperate to prove it as much as most of us know it's how the world works. It's taken as truth, no matter what, because it is truth.

[the truth in the eyes of an optimist]
